Sentia’s debut, four track EP ‘Origins’ will be available on August 12 online and physically at their launch show held at the Evelyn Hotel, Melbourne.

Written in Hong Kong, lyrically Hydroflow deals with feelings of insecurity, vulnerability and forbidden desire amidst the breakdown of a relationship all while being enchanted by a strange, foreign land.

The track delivers on these themes through the use of wet guitars, hypnotics percussion and reversed vocals building to an explosion of noise and passion three quarters through the song.

“Hydroflow came about from one of our many james, one of those loose ideas that begin as a blur but eventually start to make sense. We knew this would be a song that was a little more delicate, ” said self-taught drummer, Chris.

Earlier this year, in February, the group released self-produced single Feast of Fools nabbing the number nine spot on the triple j Unearthed Charts.

Further back Sentia’s 2013 three track release ‘Satallites’ landed them in triple j Unearthed’s Top 10 Rock Charts.
